Monitoring Hosts

Cloudera Manager's Host Monitoring features let you manage and monitor the status of the hosts in your clusters.

Viewing All Hosts

To display summary information about all the hosts managed by Cloudera Manager, click Hosts in the main navigation bar. The All Hosts page displays with
a list of all the hosts managed by Cloudera Manager.

The list of hosts shows the overall status of the Cloudera Manager-managed hosts in your cluster.

The information provided varies depending on which columns are selected. To change the columns, click the Columns: n
Selected drop-down and select the checkboxes next to the columns to display.

Click to the left of the number of roles to list all the role instances running on that
host.

Filter the hosts list by entering search terms (hostname, IP address, or role) in the search box separated by commas or spaces. Use quotes for exact matches (for example, strings that
contain spaces, such as a role name) and brackets to search for ranges. Hosts that match any of the search terms are displayed. For example:

Role Assignments

You can view the assignment of roles to hosts as follows:

Click the Roles tab.

Click a cluster name or All Clusters.

Disks Overview

Click the Disks Overview tab to display an overview of the status of all disks in the deployment. The statistics exposed match or build on those in iostat, and are shown in a series of histograms that by default cover every physical disk in the system.

Adjust the endpoints of the time line to see the statistics for different time periods. Specify a filter in the box to limit the displayed data. For example, to see the disks for a
single rack rack1, set the filter to: logicalPartition = false and rackId = "rack1" and click Filter. Click a histogram to drill down
and identify outliers. Mouse over the graph and click to display additional information about the chart.

Viewing the Hosts in a Cluster

Do one of the following:

Select Clusters > Cluster name > Hosts.

In the Home screen, click in a full form cluster table.

The All Hosts page displays with a list of the hosts filtered by the cluster name.

Viewing Individual Hosts

You can view detailed information about an individual host—resources (CPU/memory/storage) used and available, which processes it is
running, details about the host agent, and much more—by clicking a host link on the All Hosts page. See Host Details.
